Montesa was formed in Barcelona in 1944 by Pedro Permanyer and Francisco Bultó, with their first model based on a French Motobécane. They soon began to produce their own engines and started to compete in sports events to promote the marque. Bultó designed a 125cc roadster, which was tested in many of the trials and off-road events that were popular in Spain at the time and this model went on to enter the 1951 International Six Days Trial ridden by Bultó and G. Cavestany. In 1958, chief designer Bultó left, starting his own company under the Bultaco brand name, beginning many years of fierce competition between the two companies. Together with another Spanish firm, Ossa, they went on to dominate trials and enduro events in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s, with Montesa winning numerous world championships.

This beautifully presented H6 250 Enduro model was bought by the vendor a couple of years ago after undergoing an extensive restoration in Spain by Saul Salvador. The degree of authenticity and the quality of the work is exceptional on this rare Enduro model. The new speedo fitted during the rebuild shows just 19km, indeed, the engine still needs running in. The bike is UK registered and is supplied with a current V5C.
